Thank you so much to the parents that sent chocolate items to school for our silent auction baskets! We had a great basket full of delicious things.
Now that our IOWA test is over (YIPEE!) we will get back to our regular schedule this week. We will finish learning about different communities and begin learning about maps.
On Friday, October 2nd, we will have a breakfast party for those students that read every night during the month of September. The party will be in our classroom at 8:30 am. Stay tuned for invitations!
This week's word wall words are: community, country, to, two, too

September 21-25
This week we will be taking the IOWA Test. This is a standardized test that is designed to show what your child learned in second grade. We will be spending about an hour on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday taking this test. Please remember to help your child eat a nutritious breakfast, get plenty of sleep, and you may send a healthy snack with them to school.
Don't forget to send anything CHOCOLATE to school for our class auction basket! We will be taking donations until Tuesday September 22nd.
Last but not least, the RMES Carnival is on Friday September 25th! Hope to see you there!

September 7th - 11th:
Thank you for coming to your SEP appointment last week! It was great to meet you and start working together to have a wonderful school year! If you would like to volunteer in our class and did not sign up with me, call me at the school 656-3802! We would love to have you!
This week we will be taking some time each day to honor our country and especially those men and women that have served for us. Here's a run down for the week:
Tuesday- We will be writing a letter to someone that has served our country. President Obama will be addressing the students of our country at 10:00 am and we will be lucky to watch him speak.
Wednesday- Wear Red, White, and Blue! And don't forget to wear good shoes for P.E.!
Thursday- PICTURE DAY!!!! If you'd like, wear something that signifies America (sports, blue jeans, cowboys, etc) Breakfast party for students that returned their SIGNED reading calendars two weeks in a row! I will send a note home on Tuesday inviting those students... Come to our room at 8:30 am and enjoy some pancakes made by the best cook in town :)
Friday- Walk to school with your parents and enjoy our special flag ceremony in front of the school!
Word wall:
very, because, could, America, soldier

Welcome to Miss Holloway's Class blog!
Welcome to our class! We have been working hard for two whole weeks. Our year is off to an excellent start! I will be using this blog to help communicate with parents and students from home. In years past I have made a weekly newsletter that was sent home every Monday. Last year realized that the newsletter wasn't making it all the way home and was not serving its purpose to inform parents of what we are doing in class. I'm hoping this will be a more effective way to get information to you quickly and efficiently.
This week's word wall words are:
school
pencil
folder
read
homework
Please help remind your child to read every night for at least 20 minutes. Students that turn in their signed reading calendar for the next two weeks will be invited to a special breakfast party here at school! Read, read, read!
